As slinky, winding, and poisonously disquieting as a real snake, The Essex Serpent is a gem within Apple TV's impressive lexicon. Based on the novel by Sarah Perry (who wrote her doctoral thesis on Gothic media — she knows her stuff), the miniseries marks Claire Danes's return to television after her Emmy Award-winning role in Homeland. It also welcomes Tom Hiddleston back to the Gothic romance stage after Guillermo Del Toro's heinously underrated Crimson Peak.
